Thinking of each of you so very much! So many memories flood my mind. Many happy times that we had being neighbors during our childhood. One thing that I will never forget is the time in my life when I did not come home from work until late. My Mom was beside herself and scared. I guess she called your Mom because when I got home my Mom was weeping and your Mother said to me Don't you ever do that to your Mom again. I don't think I did either. It spoke louder than if my Mom would of said it. I believe that my Mom depended on your Mom more than we realized. I love you each and God be with you! Beverly

Sondra Pohl, you, your sisters, & Rory had a wonderful, loving Mother. Gerry was always a pleasant, kind & caring person. After your Father died, suddenly, she continued to nurture you in a loving & Christian way. I loved her, and was always glad to see her when she was out & about. I'll remember her always. May you continue her legacy of love & caring.

She has left a legacy through her children and all grandchildren. May God provide peace and may you know she is at peace with God the Father and all those that have gone before her. Love to all of you!
